What is the center of resistance for the tooth?

This will be the answer


If the distance from A to C is 10 mm and a 50 g force is applied at point A, what is the moment created?
A.) 400 g-mm
B.) 200 g-mm
C.) 500 g-mm

This will be the answer


If you wanted to create a 1500 g-mm moment at point B, what magnitude must Fb have if it is 15mm from point C?
A.) 100 g
B.) 1000 g
C.) 500 g

This will be the answer


If a single fore is applied at point A, what will the tooth do?
A.) Rotate
B.) Translate
C.) Both

This will be the answer

In order to regulate rotation, you must apply a counterbalancing couple (CBC).


The rotation is negated by having counterbalancing moments of equal magnitude. No rotation results in pure translation of the object.


If force A is 10 grams, what is its moment?
A.) 20 g-mm
B.) 200 g-mm
C.) 500 g-mm

This will be the answer


What moment must the couple provide to prevent rotation?
A.) 200 g-mm
B.) 10 g-mm
C.) 100 g-mm

This will be the answer


What force must the couple have if the parallel forces are separated by 10mm?
A.) F = 200g
B.) F = 20g
C.) F = 100g

This will be the answer


What force must the couple have if the parallel forces are separated by 5mm?
A.) F = 5g
B.) F = 10g
C.) F = 40g

This will be the answer
